Science And Christianity: The Positive Attitude, C. Gordon Winder
Science And Christianity: The Positive Attitude, C. Gordon Winder
Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies
The Judeo-Christian Scriptures have been considered by literalists as true in every aspect, including references to the sciences. Scripture states that earth has four corners suggesting that the earth is flat. The sun rises in the morning suggesting that the sun goes around the earth, and earth with humankind is at the centre of the universe. The six days in the Genesis account along with the genealogical chronologies were used by Irish Bishop James Ussher (1581-1652) to calculate that the earth's origin was in 4004 B.C. The Genesis account relates that the origin of humankind, and all the plants and …

Vendanta And Modern Science: Some Demarcation Criteria And Commonalities, Varadaraja V. Raman
Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies
In the past centuries, Western scholars who studied the complexities of Indian thought had at least two motivations. First, there was a need to understand the alien mind-set which they were eager to ameloriate (convert), for they worked on the conviction that they were bringing truth, light, and salvation to a misguided lot. They felt that it was their evangelical responsibility to redeem lost souls. Some of them, whether overtly or subtly, wanted to give moral ammunition to the colonial governments which were summarily imposing Western values and worldview on the subject peoples.
From Vedic Science To Vedanta, Subhash C. Kak
From Vedic Science To Vedanta, Subhash C. Kak
Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies
Vedanta has often been studied without relating it to the Vedic system of knowledge. The reason behind this situation is the fashionable but wrong view that Vedic thought is "pre-scientific" and at best it represents "archaic modes of thought". But recent scholarship has shown that astronomy was one of the bases of the design of Vedic fire altars and an astronomical code has been discovered in the organization of the Rgveda. It is now being accepted that the Vedic people knew considerable astronomy that included the knowledge of planet periods. Knowledge of astronomy and the concomitant sciences provides the backdrop …

Johannine Christianity: Jewish Christianity?, James F. Mcgrath
Scholarship and Professional Work - LAS
Since the publication of J. Louis Martyn's Decisive Study, History and Theology in the in the Fourth Gospel (1979), there has been a growing consensus among Johannine scholars that the Gospel of John was composed in the context of conflict with the synagogue, and that it is thus best understood and interpreted against the background of Judaism and Jewish Christianity'. However, several recent studies have sought to challenge this position, primarily on two fronts: Johannine Christology (Casey 1991 :23-38) and the Johannine attitude towards the Torah (Schnelle 1992:31-36). These recent challenges to the growing consensus have also pointed to the …

Texts Are Always With You: Christians And Their Bibles, R. S. Sugirtharajah
Texts Are Always With You: Christians And Their Bibles, R. S. Sugirtharajah
Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies
What Christians call the Bible is a cultural, ideological, ritual, and spiritual depository of a people who live din West Asia. Although Christians perceive it as the Book (in spite of the implied plural meaning in Greek), it is a composition of several books, embodying the collective and individual divine-human encounters of two communities - Jews and the early converts to the Jesus movement in the Mediterranean region. The Bible has two testaments, to which the adjectives "Old" and "New" are prefixed. These adjectival prefixes give the impression that the one is outdated, archaic, and no longer applicable, and the …
The Role Of Hindu Scripture In Salvation, William C. Allen, Bibhuti S. Yadav
The Role Of Hindu Scripture In Salvation, William C. Allen, Bibhuti S. Yadav
Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies
In this paper we reflect on the role of scripture in salvation in Hinduism and Christianity. We all know that differences among various Hindu scripturologies are severe and profound. Diversities of understandings of the nature and role of scripture in salvation abound no less within the various Christian traditions. There is no Hindu consensus regarding the scripture's role in salvation. Even within orthodox Hinduism the differences on this theme are fundamental. For instance. the Vedanta of Sankara reads the Vedas as descriptive of Brahman, the knowledge and realization of which constitutes moksa which Sankara equates with meta-material, meta-social, pure being. …
Saved By The Word: The Christian Understanding Of The Relationship Between Scripture And Salvation, Michael Deroche
Saved By The Word: The Christian Understanding Of The Relationship Between Scripture And Salvation, Michael Deroche
Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies
Scripture and salvation -- from a Christian point of view, both are gifts from God. yet they are not of equal import. For Christianity salvation is fundamental: it is the goal of life, indeed it is life eternal. Scripture, on the other hand, is instrumental: it leads one to salvation. As the Christian scriptures themselves put it: "... the sacred writings ... are able to instruct you for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus" (2 Tim 3:15b).
Reginald Heber And Hindu-Christian Dialogue, Geoffrey Cook
Reginald Heber And Hindu-Christian Dialogue, Geoffrey Cook
Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies
Hinduism and Christianity have lived closely together in parts of the Subcontinent since the Apostle Thomas's missionary visit in the first century of the Christian era. But in the last five centuries of direct European and South Asian contact that relationship has gained a Subcontinent-wide propinquity, and has often been quite competitive, for the meeting between India and Europe was between tradition and modernity.
